We at Thapar Institute of Engineering and Technology (TIET) and Thapar Institute Counselling Cell (TICC) want our entire community to know that it’s ok to get help. Being silent can worsen your mental health. You can come out with a better sense of self, purpose and meaning for your life. We are glad you are here and look forward to talking with you. Best wishes during your time as a TIET student!

Mental illness is real. People are scared to talk about it, but they should be scared about not talking about it. And like everything else in life, it operates on a spectrum. It’s time that everyone speaks up. It’s important to have this conversation. Yet so many people live in shame, hiding their struggles, not seeking help. We, as a culture, have not fully acknowledged how much help is needed. The only real shame is on us for not being willing to speak openly. For continuing to deny that mental health is related to our overall health. We need to start talking, and we need to start now.You can live well with a mental health condition, as long as you open up to somebody about it.

Psychological well-being, by which I also mean emotional and behavioural competency, is something I believe to be as important as our physical well-being and requires an equal amount of effort to keep it sound. Resolving the inner conflicts by understanding one’s own self and experiencing a sense of freedom is what psychotherapy is all about.
